The content of this page was created directly by users and has not been screened or verified by IMDb staff.
Since the beliefs that parents want to instill in their children can vary greatly, we ask that instead of adding your personal opinions about what is right or wrong in a film, that you instead use this feature to help parents make informed viewing decisions by describing the facts of relevant scenes in the title for each one of the different categories: Sex and Nudity, Violence and Gore, Profanity, Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking, and Frightening/Intense Scenes.
Visit our Parents Guide Help to learn more

Sex & Nudity

There's a few scenes that imply sex, but it doesn't get that deep into it at all.

Violence & Gore

There's a lot of action violence and in a few cases men slap ladies faces. The ladies also do so in return.

There are a few hints of blood (like we see someone get shot and then see the bullet holes and some blood trickling).

A guy gets knocked out and then put in a strait jacket.

A guy sort of does a Russian Roulette on another guy while trying to extract information from him.

Profanity

An S-word or two, plus a few other uses, but nothing nearly heavy.

The ending has a bit of a twist (hence the title name, see below for more)

Two people flood a room, trying to reach a skylight so they can escape. They fail to break the skylight, but the villians for whatever reason come back, open the door, and the water floods out saving the good guy/gal.
